A 5-year-old, male, domestic rabbit had severe swelling of the left rear leg. Radiographs demonstrated a proliferative, infiltrative lesion involving the stifle joint, femur, and soft tissues of the thigh. Osteomyelitis or neoplasia was suspected, and the leg was surgically amputated. Grossly, a multilobular mass comprised cyst-like structures containing yellow...
A freely rising profiler was used to collect vertical microstructure profiles in the upper oceanic boundary layer under various atmospheric and sea conditions. Near the sea surface, the rate of viscous dissipation of turbulence kinetic energy, ϵ, exhibited a range of behaviors under different forcing conditions. Sometimes, ϵ was closely...
Phylogenetics benefits from using a large number of putatively independent nuclear loci and their combination with other sources of information, such as the plastid and mitochondrial genomes. To facilitate the selection of orthologous low‐copy nuclear (LCN) loci for phylogenetics in nonmodel organisms, we created an automated and interactive script to...
In simple models, the nocturnal boundary layer is generally formulated in terms of eddy diffusivities, which
are functions of height above ground and boundary layer depth. This approach is modified in this study to
include ‘‘z-less’’ turbulence, which is formulated in terms of a stability-dependent mixing length and a Prandtl...
In Section 1 we will discuss multi-nucleon transfer reactions with light heavy ions, which can be thought of as competing with complete fusion at higher impact parameters. Quasi-elastic and multi-nucleon transfer reactions with the heaviest projectiles will be discussed in Section 2. In Section 3 we will cover recent developments...
In multi-instance multi-label (MIML) learning, datasets are given in the form of bags, each of which contains multiple instances and is associated with multiple labels. This paper considers a novel instance clustering problem in MIML learning, where the bag labels are used as background knowledge to help group instances into...
A mathematical evidence-in a statistically significant sense-of a geometric scenario leading to criticality of the Navier-Stokes problem is presented. (C) 2012 American Institute of Physics. [http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.4752170]
Sudden oak death caused by the oomycete Phytophthora ramorum was first discovered in California toward the end of the 20th century and subsequently emerged on tanoak forests in Oregon before its first detection in 2001 by aerial surveys. The Oregon Department of Forestry has since monitored the epidemic and sampled...
The present work shows predatory behavior of the social orb-weaver spider, Geratonephila burmanica n. gen., n. sp. (Araneae: Nephilidae) against a parasitic wasp, Cascoscelio incassa n. gen., n. sp., (Hymenoptera: Platygasteridae) in Early Cretaceous Burmese amber. An adult male and juvenile of Geratonephila burmanica n. gen., n. sp. in the...
Transparent p – i – n heterojunction diodes are fabricated using heavily doped, p-type CuYO₂ and
semi-insulating i-ZnO thin films deposited onto a glass substrate coated with n-type indium tin
oxide. Rectification is observed, with a ratio of forward-to-reverse current as high as 60 in the range
−4–4 V. The...
